Summary of the previous chapter: Huang Gai wrote a very real letter of false surrender to Cao Cao according to what Ma Xiaoquan said. After receiving the letter, Cao Cao immediately made a positive attitude and replied to Ma Xiaoquan. Huang Gai got the reply,
Ask Ma Xiaoquan...
Ma Xiaoquan nodded and said: "Since you know that I am the Supreme Immortal, should you listen to what the Supreme Immortal says?"
Huang Gai nodded and said: "Listen, absolutely listen!"
"Okay, then I ask you, if you want to pretend to surrender to Cao Cao, how can you gain his further trust?"
Huang Gai hesitated for a moment and said: "Well, it's a bit... Don't worry, Lord Shangxian, I will definitely do it so that Cao Cao won't be suspicious."
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head: "Old General Huang, if you really want to do this, you will definitely lose sight of one thing."
Huang Gai pondered for a moment and sighed: "Sir Shangxian said yes, but... if I don't do this, what should I do?"
"According to what I said, you can just go up and fuck Madam Cao."
Huang Gai was a little excited: "Master Shangxian, is this really okay?"
"Of course. In this case, I ask you, what do you think should be done if you want to defeat Cao Cao?"
Huang Gai didn't even think about it and said without thinking: "Fire attack!"
Ma Xiaoquan nodded and asked Huang Gai: "Why attack with fire?"
Huang Gai said: "Master Shangxian doesn't know something. I told the Governor of Zhou a long time ago about this matter, and the Governor also agreed. However, if we use fire attack, if only one of Cao Cao's warships is burned,
That would be a bit of a waste.”
Ma Xiaoquan said: "Well, it's good to use fire attack. It's exactly what you said. How to burn Cao Cao's warships together requires skills, huh!"
Huang Gai patted his head and suddenly said: "Master Shangxian, don't you know how to control fire? Otherwise, you can go with us to defeat Cao Cao, and then you can set fire."
"Go, go, go! You old guy, are you trying to make things difficult for me?"
Huang Gai's face turned red and hehehe said: "That's not true, but it's true. Master Shangxian, please think about it. Even if I set a fire, I'd have to burn a lot, right?"
Ma Xiaoquan couldn't make up his mind for a moment, so he had to suppress Huang Gai's question first.
After sending Huang Gai away, Ma Xiaoquan immediately called Yuan in his left eye and asked Yuan if he had any good suggestions.
Yuan also thought for a long time before transmitting a message: "Huntan Ma Xiaoquan, let me ask you first, who came up with the fire attack strategy in the Battle of Chibi in history?"
Ma Xiaoquan responded: "The real one should be Huang Gai!"
"Well, let me ask you again, who asked Cao Cao to connect his warships?"
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head: "I don't know this, and it's not written clearly in history, but it definitely can't be Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan."
"Well, you are smart, so let me ask you the third question. It has been these days, do you think I have ever bitten you back?"
"No"
"Do you know why?"
"have no idea!"
Yuan sighed: "Actually, history has asked me to monitor you several times, but every time at the most critical moment, you would stop and correct the course of history, so every time history did not order me to bite you. Of course, history is
The original will of the universe, since it is a will, will also have its own temperament. As I said, you and I are just extremely small existences in the universe. If we offend the original will, we will receive a fierce response. When the time comes, we can
It’s not something you and I can bear anymore.”
Ma Xiaoquan was a little confused about what Yuan meant: "Yuan, what do you mean by this?"
Yuan Chuanyuan said: "Don't you always want to know how Huang Jingming died? Let me tell you..."
Ma Xiaoquan was a little surprised and interrupted: "Wait a minute, wasn't Huang Jingming killed by your backlash?"
Yuandao: "Yes, but do you know the real reason?"
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head and said he didn't know. Although Yuan couldn't see him shaking his head in his own eyes, Yuan and he were one, and he could definitely feel his mood and emotions.
"Let me put it this way, let me ask you first, Ma Xiaoquan, if you knew that you had made a big mistake later, would you specifically use the ability of physical time travel to go back to before you made the mistake to correct it?"
Ma Xiaoquan said: "Of course, this is equivalent to taking regret medicine. If I have the chance, I will definitely do it..." At this point, Ma Xiaoquan seemed to think of something in his heart.
Yuan sensed Ma Xiaoquan's mood and smiled: "But have you noticed that every time you physically travel back and forth, whether you go back or come back, there will be a time difference, which can be more than ten days at most or a few hours at least?"
"Yes"
"To tell you the truth, this is history, which is the original will. To put it simply, what happened before, not even history itself, will allow you to cheat completely and on time."
With such a simple explanation, Ma Xiaoquan suddenly realized: "So, this history is actually completely irreversible?"
"So to speak!"
"Then can I also assume that Cao Cao has actually connected his warships?"
"You are very smart, you can tell at one point"
Ma Xiaoquan didn't want to do it anymore: "Then what the hell am I running around for? Oh, I've been making trouble for a long time and I'm just being treated like a stupid boy?"
Yuan smiled again and said: "You are wrong. Since history is the original will, there will be times when you are lazy, but the original will will not make a deal with you, because you are an entity time traveler that violates the principles of history. Since you
When you come to this era, everything you do must revolve around history. Let me make an analogy. I...the source...is both one with you and also a descendant of history.
The person who monitors you and punishes you after you make a mistake... well... let's call me a double agent; and you, you are a time traveler with the ability to physically travel, what you have done
All of them are actually going against history, so..."
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head helplessly. At this moment, he suddenly knew the truth and felt very uncomfortable.
"But..." Yuan paused for a moment and continued to speak, "Unless what you experience is your own history, that is, your own history."
"My own history? How do I put this into words?"
"Hmph, let me give you a hint, Ma Xiaoquan, if you complete the mission of this era, where will you choose as your next stop?"
Ma Xiaoquan thought for a moment and responded in his heart: "It should be the Tang Dynasty, Song Dynasty or something?"
"Wrong, you should go to Mingmo, well, it's not that you should, you must go to Mingmo!"
"No, why?"
In his left eye, Yuan's expression was also very helpless: "I don't know, the original will of history asked me to give you a message, telling you where you must go next, otherwise, I will bite you back and die."
"I am..." Ma Xiaoquan said helplessly, "Isn't it ridiculous that someone can be so threatening?"
Yuan Dao: "I'm just sending a message. It's up to you whether to go or not. Of course, if you offend the original will, you and I will be finished."
Ma Xiaoquan doesn't want to die, especially in this era where he has lived young for almost 20 years. The war-torn era is the easiest time for people to have a desire for survival. Although Ma Xiaoquan is doing well in this era as the "Shangxian Lord", if
What if Ma Xiaoquan is an ordinary time traveler, with no superpowers, no influence, no money, and no connections?
Ma Xiaoquan would not blindly believe in the content of those time travels. It is completely impossible to conquer here and win there with martial arts. The reason is very simple, because as long as you are a person, you will be able to conquer it in this life.
Fight with other people for a lifetime, no one is perfect, and no one can conquer everyone around him with his personal force or charm.
Yes, to put it bluntly, it is just a common interest.
...
"I understand..." Ma Xiaoquan sighed, "Then after this task is completed, I will go to Mingmo."
"Well, good!"
"Then Cao Cao's matter..."
Yuan comforted and said: "Don't worry, history is history, what Cao Cao did is what he did."
Ma Xiaoquan snorted, nodded, and walked out of the tent.
Finding Zhou Yu, Ma Xiaoquan told Zhou Yu that Cao Cao had connected the warships. Zhou Yu was very curious because just before Ma Xiaoquan arrived, his spies also reported that Cao Cao had connected all the warships of his army with iron ropes.
It was also laid with wooden planks.
Ma Xiaoquan waved his hand, and just a smile broke through Zhou Yu's silence.
Zhou Yu said: "Huang Gai just came over and talked about the fire attack plan. Since Cao Cao has connected the warships, this plan will definitely come true."
